Ingredients
Caramel:
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup water
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, prepare the caramel by combining the sugar and water over medium heat. Stir continuously until the mixture thickens and the syrup turns a deep amber color. Then, turn off the heat.
- Arrange 6 ramekins and evenly divide the caramel among them, reserving some for topping. Tilt the ramekins to ensure the caramel coats the bottom evenly. Preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C).
- Clean the saucepan and heat it over low heat. Add the milk and 1/2 cup of sugar. Once the sugar dissolves, turn off the heat. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until blended, then gradually add the warm milk. Stir in the vanilla extract and whisk briefly. Strain the custard mixture into the 6 ramekins and set aside.
- Arrange the 6 ramekins in a baking pan large enough to hold them. Pour hot water into the baking pan until it reaches about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
- Transfer the baking pan to the oven, cover it with aluminum foil, and bake for about 50 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the ramekins from the baking pan and let them cool. Once cooled, transfer them to the fridge and chill for a few hours. When ready to serve, slide a knife around the edge of each ramekin to loosen the flan. Invert onto a dessert plate and top with extra caramel, if desired.
Notes
- If the caramel turns solid, heat it up in a microwave for 10 seconds to dissolve it.
